Beijing-Hong Kong Affair

Chapter 92 Apology
Jiang Yunian didn't hear Lin Xian's response. His heart seemed to be picked up and suddenly thrown into the air, where it remained hanging for a long time.

Maybe she needs to think about it for a while. After all, she is still young and marriage is a big deal. I should give her some time to think it over.

But as time passed, Lin Xian still didn't respond.

Jiang Yunian's hope gradually fell from mid-air, and was about to hit the ground. He took a deep breath and leaned forward slightly, "Ah Xian, if you..."

Lin Xian lowered her head and almost slipped off the seat, but Jiang Yunian quickly caught her.

He looked at the already sleeping Lin Xian with a lost look, and laughed at himself: "Is it because my story was too boring that you fell asleep? Did you hear the last sentence?"

Obviously, a sleeping person would not give him any response.

Jiang Yunian put away the box, straightened Lin Xian's body, started the car and went home.

Just because some things were said didn't mean Lin Xian would definitely forgive him. Besides, she had been drinking tonight and might not have heard clearly what he said.

Jiang Yunian decided to wait until she woke up tomorrow and then explain everything to her.

Lin Xian was sleeping so soundly that she was unaware even when Jiang Yunian carried her upstairs. However, her body recognized this familiar embrace. She took the initiative to snuggle into Jiang Yunian's arms, craving for the warmth there.

Jiang Yunian put her on the bed and kissed her on the forehead, "Ah Xian, happy birthday, and may you be safe and sound every year."

In addition to the ring, he also prepared other gifts, but compared with the ring, those gifts seemed insignificant.

After Jiang Yunian wiped Lin Xian's body and changed her into pajamas, he noticed that the necklace she was wearing was not the one he gave her.

Not only that, he looked around and suddenly realized that all the furnishings in the house had returned to their original state.

There was no trace of her existence at all.

Under the dim light, he stared quietly at the woman on the bed. Even in her sleep, Lin Xian's brows were furrowed.

Jiang Yunian felt very unhappy. It turned out that she had already decided to leave her own world.

It turned out that during the time when he was away, she had been suffering a lot, because she had never given him enough sense of security.

Jiang Yunian secretly made a decision that from now on, no matter when, he would send a message to Lin Xian, at least to prove that he was always thinking about her in his heart.

Fortunately, he still had the chance to explain it to her today, otherwise perhaps what would be waiting for him was her leaving without saying goodbye.

He never smoked, but at this moment he wanted to have a cigarette. He couldn't suppress the depression in his heart.

Jiang Yunian got up and went to the bathroom. In the misty air, he looked at himself in the mirror and lost his confidence for the first time.

How to do?
I am seven years older than her. What if my body is no longer attractive to her in the future? How can I keep her?

Jiang Yunian sighed and opened the red velvet box containing the ring. The small diamond ring carried his best wishes.

This exquisitely designed ring was named L'AMOUR DE MA VIE (The love of my life) by a French designer. It features the world's only internally flawless blue diamond. The setting is a five-claw ring with diamonds dotted around it, which sparkles without taking away the brilliance of the main stone.

His couple ring is inlaid with a small cut blue diamond inside and engraved with Lin Xian's English initials.

Jiang Yunian closed the lid, walked out of the bathroom, glanced at the sleeping Lin Xian, and finally put the box in the drawer of the master bedroom.

He was afraid of putting too much pressure on Lin Xian, and he kept convincing himself that she was still young and he should give her some more time.

I didn't expect that the ring had been lying in the drawer for so many years.

When Lin Xian got up in the morning, there was no one around her, but she soon discovered that her cell phone was already charged and placed on the bedside table, with a piece of note paper under the phone.

This is Jiang Yunian’s message.

[Breakfast is in the pot. You drank wine yesterday. Eat some hot porridge. I'll go home and deal with yesterday's affairs.]

He is still so caring.

She didn't drink much last night, so she remembered Jiang Yunian's explanation clearly. And she seemed to have believed his words easily.

After Lin Xian pulled back the quilt, she discovered that her clothes had been changed. She thought to herself that she really trusted Jiang Yunian and could sleep so peacefully in front of him.

She fell asleep last night after hearing that he was rescued from kidnapping, and had no recollection of what happened afterwards.

But her first reaction was reassurance towards Jiang Yunian.

People are really contradictory. She almost wanted to break up, but after a lot of explanations, she started to miss his good points again.

Lin Xian got up, took a shower, and called Jian Shiya while eating breakfast.

It rang twice, but no one answered.

Lin Xian was a little puzzled, so she sent a message to Jane Shiya: [Do you want to go to Ocean Park or Victoria Peak today? ]

Jian Shiya still didn't reply. When Lin Xian was about to call again, she received a call.

"Hello, is this Lin Xian?"

"I am, who are you?"

As soon as the other person opened his mouth, Lin Xian could already tell that he was probably the only person from Hong Kong who could speak Mandarin with such an accent.

"Would you please meet with me? I have something to tell you."

"today?"

"Well, right now, I'm in the coffee shop outside your community. I'm sorry to bother you in this way."

The other party's attitude was modest, so Lin Xian had no reason to refuse. "Please wait a moment. I'll change my clothes and come down."

While waiting for the elevator, Lin Xian remembered that when she searched for the Jiang family's background a few days ago, she also saw news about the Li family. The report said that when Li Yude was young, he was decisive and ruthless, and he didn't talk much, and he occupied a lot of territories.

Perhaps because he had done too many bad things when he was young, after accumulating a certain amount of wealth, Li Yude began to believe in Buddhism, build temples and donate merits.

Someone once predicted that he would have few descendants, but it is not known if it is true. After his only son died in an accident, Li Yude lived in seclusion and rarely appeared in front of the media.

But Lin Xian could sense that he was still the person in power behind the scenes at the Li family.

She couldn't see through Li Yude's eyes, which contained many years of business acumen.

The coffee shop seemed to be reserved by Li Yude. Usually, one had to queue up to buy a cup of coffee, but today there were no other customers. Only Li Yude was sitting in the middle.

Lin Xian walked over and called out in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Good morning, Mr. Li."

Li Yude seemed to be in better spirits than the last time I saw him. His gray hair had been dyed black, and his face was no longer stern. He had a warm smile on his face. "I'm here. What do you want to drink?"

"Just plain water."

Li Yude asked the waiter to bring a glass of water and got straight to the point, "I came here today to apologize to you."

Lin Xian didn't understand what was going on. She looked at Li Yude and asked, "Apologize? To me?"

Li Yude nodded, "I'm sorry that you didn't have a good birthday yesterday. Zhou Jiatong, you should know that the little girl has liked Jiang Yunian since she was a child. But I didn't expect that she would do such a thing, trying to destroy the relationship between you and Jiang Yunian, using such a despicable method."

Lin Xian reacted immediately, "Are you saying that the video I received was faked by her?"

"Not only that, there are some other things. She should bear the consequences for what she did. Don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation."

Lin Xian didn't think that these wealthy people would condescend to an ordinary citizen and severely punish their relatives.

"May I ask why you do this?"
